Bill,

I think I follow, but there's something I don't get. These pre-coated strips will still have to be faired and sanded, I assume. Won't that take off the epoxy layer?

: Hi Steve,

: I just figured out a way to do this, dye most of the boat but leave
: strips undyed. It would take a bit of planning and work before
: you strip it. If you take the strips that won't be dyed and
: pre-coat them with epoxy then let it fully set up (about a week
: or so) then they won't take the dye and still can be glued into
: the hull/deck as per normal. Stain or dye will wipe right off
: the cured epoxy. Regular titebond glue will glue the cured epoxy
: just fine for this use.

: Bill H.
